White Americans sometimes do not see racism when it is there; Black Americans sometimes see racism when it is not there.

How about the number 1 conclusion coming first:

White and black Americans do not mean the same thing when they use the word "racism". White Americans mean the racial motivation of discrimination or violence of anyone from a different ethnicity. Black Americans mean any outcome that does not include their favored result.

We cannot talk about racism until we have a mutual understanding of the meaning of the word.

Even worse, the “black family” isn’t leaning on God any more. Maybe He is being dismissed as a figment of “white religion” (though historically, if the example of the Jewish people of that time were normative, one might have expected Jesus Christ to be a swarthy or olive skinned figure, not exactly white, not exactly black).

And what about the disproportionate number of Black babies killed in the womb

I'm old enough to remember the days when Jesse Jackson would rail against abortion as "genocide against the black race".

Then the Democrat Party got his mind right.

I can imagine there being a nationwide police strike due to all the crap they’ve been getting.

This of course results in hundreds of thousands of thugs going rampage on all the major inner cities around the USA.

This sense of liberty will greatly embolden them so they’ll try to embark out into the suburbs where many will get mowed down by gun owners.

The nation-wide violence and police-less country will cause the US government to send a nationalized police force around the country and to try to round up guns from everyone-—which is possibly their plan in the first place.

Actually, “racism” is a made-up word that means whatever the speaker wants it to mean, and hence means nothing.

Frankly my give~a~shyt meter is busted. Over the course of my life I’ve given blacks far more respect that I’ve ever received in return. Regard, like respect is a two-way street. I was raised to offer the benefit of the doubt but not to ever take crap from anyone.

I am not the one with the problem. I’m not doing anything to agitate or escalate. I’m like the badger, quietly going about his own business. I present no menace...unless you mess with me, in which case if I sense danger and can’t retreat I will do my very best to end you.

Grow up black America.

“Racist” is a word used when somebody is losing an argument.

More Globalist Bull. I see whites and Blacks getting along just fine.

The only place I hear of war is from the media and all their hype to keep you watching.

Yes there are incidents, but that’s NOT the entire country like the media wants you to believe.

Well since God’s isn’t, go to Him and get it fixed.

Well written article, but I take umbrage with a couple of points.

1-Rhetoric regarding violence must not be categorically denounced, specifically if that category regards tyranny. There will come a time when it is required.

2-Stating that we are all one race is fundamentally wrong. We are not all one race, there are three and to deny that belittles any and all efforts towards racial parity. God created many races for a reason and no amount of effort by man will erase that fact. What must be stated is that there are certain differences between the races that may provide a benefit in some arenas but that this is not a negative, nor is it cause to disparage any of a different race. I can freely admit that, though I was an athlete, I lack the ability to excel in athleticism. Though I hold a Master’s degree, I was not a 4.0 student.

White and black Americans do not mean the same thing when they use the word "racism".

Same goes for the word 'justice'. Example, the Duke lacrosse case. Justice to blacks meant putting those white boys in prison as convicted rapists.

(we must address black on black crime in addition to the murder of innocent blacks)

Which (murder/innocent) is so seldom that it is negligible and should be pursued on an individual basis rather than viewed as an ongoing problem.

True. The bottom line for every human being who ever lived is to understand I AM GUILTY BEFORE THE LIVING GOD/WHAT MUST I DO TO BE SAVED?

God made it so easy by providing ONE way, The Way, His Son. A gift He freely gave that most of humanity wants nothing to do with. What else have they right to expect except HELL (on earth or in eternity)?

...with illegitimacy in Black America at an almost unimaginable high of 74 percent...

Which when mentioned by a white labels him a racist; when mentioned by a black labels him a Tom.

You wish, but it has a definite meaning.

There is hypocrisy in its use, however, on the more-melanin side of the aisle because they are ACUTELY race-conscious. The less-melanin side of the aisle tends, yes, to try to be color blind.

It’s peculiar because I have two cats (neutered toms) one of which is black and one of which is white, and though I don’t know if they are color conscious, I have cat wars that look almost like what is going on in America now. The white cat is lovey and even kisses the black cat. The black cat is sometimes lovey but sometimes gets moods and picks on the white cat. The white cat eventually bites back when this gets bad enough, leaving bite wounds on the black cat. If the black cat can’t learn that a vendetta on the white cat is futile, it will eventually have to go.
